and get concealed carry licenses and pack ML pistols.

Imagine the look on somebody's face when they threaten you and you pull out a micro smoke pole.

They'd be dumbfounded at best hehe.

I really want a revolver, but I have bought 3 MLs since the middle of December....so it will have to wait a little longer. But I will get one. I like the traditions army revolver, the one that has the really long barrel. My idea when I get caught up on my honey-do list is to try for a traditional percusion rifle and a revolver that matches it. Anyone know of any good matching sets?

There are several choices for matched pairs pistol/rifle!
Lyman does make two pistols that would go w/ the GPR flint/percussion.
If you re enact you could do the 1861 Army 45 and the Springfield musket from one of several reproductions. CSA had some repro to...

I happen to have a .45 cal 1862 Navy percussion w/ the naval scene on the cylinder. Same as the Army. Uberti and Peti are two real good ones. Of course Ruger has a SS and they did obsollete the blued version a couple years ago. Colt hasa pistol on the old BP frame, but I don't think they are percussion any more.

I think if you pulled outa larger flinter pistol and a had a back up ankle flinter you would be styling in your tan suede leather coat and hat!Yea Baby!

I'm up for it!
I'll get the Lyman Plains pistol and carry it in my waistband.
Maybe one for my boot, too.
